The licensing has gotten super onerous.
- sanxiyn 7y agoWhat licensing? OpenJDK is licensed under GPLv2 plus Classpath exception, the same as ever.
- pron 7y agoThe licensing has gotten far better. First, Oracle has just open sourced the entire JDK for the first time ever, and second, instead of offering a mixed free/paid, open/proprietary JDK (with -XX:+UnlockCommercialFeatures flags), it now offers the JDK under either a completely free and open license (under the name OpenJDK) or a commercial license for Oracle support subscription customers (under the name Oracle JDK).
- ksec 7y agoThanks, that clear things up bit.
